Color Dare Challenge #606

 


This picture shows my make for the




Do pop over to the Color Dare Challenge and take a look at my teamies' makes.

This picture shows the challenge - 



I started with white card to make a trifold. I die cut the main die from the centre of this. I then added the background behind this - a splattered ink page - with die cut jelly fish attached.
In reality, the ink colours match the challenge colours plus neutrals.



Hope you will join the Color Dare Challenge...


Happy Crafting!

WOYWW #785

           

It is Wednesday so I am linking to WOYWW. By now I expect that you know that Julia decided to bow out - after 15 years! - so the Stamping Ground is no longer the place to link.

Instead go to Sarah's blog at Sarah's craft shed

Here is my work table today:


Not a lot of change - and rather a schmozzle!

There is a packet of Bee Arty papers I am in the process of using - and the odd new thing. There are three Natalie May Tag workshop packets for me to get around to...

I finished off week two of the ICADS:






I then started on week 3 and decided to try and keep with the theme.



These are the ones I have made so far:





and today's...



I finished a jigsaw at the weekend and was very disappointed to find a piece missing:


However Kevin came to the rescue and found it under a chair...



I thought you also might like to see who I have been seeing across the road from our house the last couple of days:


Anyway that's all from me today. Hope to visit you all later...when we have returned Ollie home...

Happy WOYWW!

Outlawz Sketch Challenge

 

Outlawz has a new Challenge - based on a sketch.

This is the sketch for June.




I started with a white card blank matted with some card from my scraps. The kookaburra is a sticker I had on my desk - taken from a parcel from Bridget Farmer.

I ran the other scrap through an embossing folder and cut it into a tag. I added vintage photo distress ink around all edges.



I will link this to the challenge.


Happy Crafting!

WOYWW #784

          

It is Wednesday so I am linking to WOYWW. By now I expect that you know that Julia decided to bow out - after 15 years! - so the Stamping Ground is no longer the place to link.

Here is my work table today:


On the desk easel is the journal page from my featured post.

This weekend has been a 'long weekend' celebrating the King's Birthday. Sophie came to stay but the weather was horrendous so we ended up crafting and shopping online - and enjoying a few bubbles!


We did some pouring - you might be able to see one of my hexagons on the desk. I put the other on my perpetual calendar.


You might also notice some purchases and the odd Gelli pull on my desk...


I was delighted to receive another super ATC - thank you BJ!



I finished off week one of the ICADS:







There is also a theme for each week so I have been trying to bear these in mind too...



I have also started on week 2:


These are the ones I have made so far:





I need to do ellipse today...

Anyway that's all from me today. Hope to visit you all later...I managed about half lats week (later on!)

Happy WOYWW!
